Dan King nodded. A young man like Jiang Chen was indeed very rare. Even with his experience, it was the first time he had seen such a young man. However, there was something else that surprised him. He lowered his head and looked at the place where the six people were burnt to ashes.
"Elder Lu, did you notice that the flames he used just now were not ordinary flames?"
Dan King said.
The old man who was addressed as Old Lu also noticed the burning corpses. Although he was not an alchemist, he had been by the Dan King's side for a long time and was influenced by him. He knew a little about alchemy. In the path of alchemy, other than a strong Soul Energy, one also needed a strong flame.
"The flame was filled with the aura of extreme Yang, like the fire of heaven and earth. It was even more terrifying than your Flowing Cloud Scarlet Flame. This is too rare. How could such a mystical flame appear on a young man's body? Could it be that he is also an alchemist?"
Elder Lu felt the aura of the flame and was incomparably shocked.
"Even if he is not an alchemist, he has the talent to become one. It seems like Ning Er is very interested in this young man."
Dan King's lips curled into a smile. This time, he was choosing a husband for Wu Ningzhu because he wanted to find a peerless genius with extraordinary talent. In fact, these days, Dan King had been secretly observing these geniuses. Jiang Chen's performance at the Blue Moon Lake had shocked Dan King. Since Wu Ningzhu was also interested in Jiang Chen, it couldn't be better.
"Yes, Miss Ning appeared at the Blue Moon Lake and invited him to the boat alone."
Elder Lu said with a smile.
"En, this young man is not bad. Let's see how he performs on the day of the selection."
Dan King nodded. With regards to a genius like Jiang Chen, there was no one who didn't admire him. His enemies wanted him dead, but his own people liked him very much.
"That young man with the huge ruler was covered in spiritual medicines from head to toe. It was like a body made from spiritual medicines. Moreover, they were all extremely rare and precious spiritual medicines. What a miracle."
Dan King's eyes were sharp. He saw Nangong Wentian as well. As an alchemist, Nangong Wentian was like a medicine pot. If he was thrown into a cauldron to refine, he would become a peerless spiritual medicine. However, Dan King didn't think so. There must be a reason for miracles like Nangong Wentian to exist. It was luck.
There were still a few days before the day of the selection. Many geniuses were in seclusion to prepare for the selection. The emergence of a strong enemy like Jiang Chen had made them feel uneasy. As for the death of Tan Zhi Peng and Lu Wang, no one would care about them. Not to mention those geniuses, even the ordinary cultivators wouldn't care about them. There were too many geniuses in Dan Yuan City. Losing a few of them wouldn't attract any attention.
These few days, Dan King County was decorated with lanterns and streamers, preparing for the wedding of Wu Ningzhu. Wu Ningzhu had made it clear that as long as there was someone who could surpass all the geniuses on the day of the selection, she would get married immediately.
On the third day of the incident at the Blue Moon Lake, Wu Ningzhu had successfully broken through to the Ninth Grade Combat Emperor. A strong wave of Qi came out from the bamboo forest where she lived. The aura of a Ninth Grade Combat Emperor was rippling in the sky, causing a huge shock in Dan King County.
With such a huge commotion, even the King of Elixirs was alarmed.
"It's Ning Er. She has advanced to the Ninth Grade Combat Emperor in such a short time. This is really out of my expectation."
Dan King's eyes were filled with ecstasy. With a sway of his body, he came to the side of the bamboo forest. He saw Wu Ningzhu sitting cross-legged in front of the pavilion. She had completely advanced to the Ninth Grade Combat Emperor and was constantly gathering her Qi.
"Haha, Ning Er, I didn't expect you to advance to the Ninth Grade Combat Emperor in such a short time. Your father is exceptionally happy."
Dan King laughed loudly.
Wu Ningzhu quickly stood up and bowed slightly to Dan King. "Father, the reason why I could advance so quickly was because of the help of a benefactor."
"Oh? A benefactor? "
Dan King was stunned, but his eyes brightened up immediately. His gaze fell on Wu Ningzhu's body. With his sharp senses, he could immediately sense that Wu Ningzhu's advancement was due to some kind of pill, because the overflowing pill in her body hadn't disappeared yet.
It was because of this that Dan King was even more shocked, because he found out that after Wu Ningzhu took the pill to advance, not only did it not bring any discomfort to Wu Ningzhu, but Wu Ningzhu's essence, Qi and soul were much more vigorous than before. Her flesh and bones had undergone some changes, as if she had been reborn.
One should know that it was very difficult to advance from Eighth Grade to Ninth Grade Combat Emperor. It wasn't impossible to use the pill to forcefully advance. Dan King could also concoct this kind of pill, but the repercussions of the advancement would be great. It would cause the cultivator's foundation to be unstable, and it might even cause the cultivator's progress to stagnate, losing the chance to break through to the Minor Saint grade in the future.
However, Wu Ningzhu was obviously different. After she took the pill, not only did her foundation become more solid, her potential was stimulated once again. It wouldn't be a problem for her to break through to the Minor Saint grade in the future.
That was why Dan King was shocked, because he knew that there weren't many pills like this. In the entire Divine Continent, it was even rarer to concoct such a pill.
"Ning Er, what pill did you take? Who gave it to you? "
Dan King asked in a serious tone.
"Nine Sun Les Rond Pill."
Wu Ningzhu said honestly.
"Nine Sun Les Rond Pill?"
The King of Dan felt that the name of the pill was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before. In the next second, his body trembled violently as if he was struck by lightning. His expression changed drastically as his eyes shone with a bright light. He exclaimed, "Ning 'er, what did you say? Nine Sun Les Rond Pill? It's the legendary Nine Sun Les Rond Pill. How could such a pill exist in this world? Tell me quickly, who gave it to you? I must meet this person. There isn't a person who can concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill in this world. "
Looking at Dan King's excited expression, Wu Ningzhu thought that as expected. As a Dan King, nothing was more attractive to him than the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill. Wu Ningzhu could imagine that when he mentioned the name Jiang Chen, this name would leave a heavy impression in his heart.
"It's Jiang Chen."
Wu Ningzhu said.
"Jiang Chen? The young genius from Xuanyu? "
Dan King's eyes widened. He thought he had heard it wrong.
"That's right. That day when I invited him on the boat, he gave me a Nine Sun Les Rond Pill. He concocted this pill himself. Jiang Chen is truly a heaven-defying man, a peerless genius. He attracted Heavenly Tribulation when he broke through to the Combat Soul realm, and when he broke through to the Combat King and Combat Emperor realms, he attracted Heavenly Tribulation. He concocted the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill during his Heavenly Tribulation, and he still has it with him."
Wu Ningzhu said.
Dan King felt like he was struck by lightning. He couldn't believe this was true. A young man who looked like he was in his twenties could actually concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill. If this didn't come from Wu Ningzhu's mouth, he wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.
"What a talented young man! He is indeed a peerless genius, I can't believe he attracted Heavenly Tribulation. However, attracting Heavenly Tribulation is one thing, and being able to concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill is another. The conditions to concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill are extremely stringent; it requires the Nine Solar Holy Water and the force of lightning. Even if someone isn't afraid of lightning, it is still extremely difficult to concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill. This requires a very high level of attainment in alchemy. With father's current level, even if I am given the right conditions, I won't be able to concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill."
Dan King sighed. His impression of Jiang Chen had instantly become incomparably lofty. Age didn't matter when it came to cultivation. Just the fact that Jiang Chen was able to concoct the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill was enough to convince Dan King. He didn't dare treat Jiang Chen as a junior anymore.
"Jiang Chen said that on the day of the son-in-law selection, he will take out the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill and give it to father as a betrothal gift."
Wu Ningzhu said with a smile. Jiang Chen didn't say this, but Wu Ningzhu directly made the decision for Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen wouldn't dare to object at that time. Although the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill was precious, could it be more precious than himself?
"Alright, just based on his attainment in alchemy, father will treat him warmly. When the time comes, I will definitely discuss alchemy with him."
Dan King was incomparably excited. The appearance of Jiang Chen was his biggest gain from this son-in-law selection. As an alchemist who was obsessed with alchemy, to be able to see a treasure like the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill in his lifetime, his life wasn't in vain.
"To be honest, father, I and Jiang Chen have feelings for each other since long ago. We've known each other since we were in the Southern Continent. This son-in-law selection is for him. He once promised me that he will defeat all the geniuses and marry me. I want him to fulfill his promise."
Wu Ningzhu didn't hide anything anymore. She told everything about how she and Jiang Chen had known each other for a long time.
"Haha, even if you don't say it, father can still guess it. Ever since Jiang Chen entered Dan Yuan City, he first gave the guards a thousand Heaven Elixir pills, then gave Dong Mei a high-rank Emperor Weapon at the Blue Moon Lake. He's so generous. Then, he directly gave you the Nine Sun Les Rond Pill. How could he give such a precious thing away so easily? I can see that this person is sincere towards you."
Dan King laughed heartily. He was quite satisfied with this prospective son-in-law.
"Father, please don't laugh at me."
Wu Ningzhu smiled sweetly. Jiang Chen's visit to Dan Yuan City this time could be considered as making her proud. This was a real man who could make his woman proud at all times.
The father and daughter were talking about Jiang Chen here. It was as if they had already regarded him as the son-in-law of Dan King County. If those geniuses who were waiting to participate in the son-in-law selection knew about this, their hearts would probably be filled with jealousy.
